Draft content for review before launch.
Clarify your objective
Identify why your organization is considering an information security management system. Customer expectations, internal improvement, and formal certification can lead to different planning priorities.

Create a readiness work plan
Assign owners and milestones for the gaps you identify. Confirm applicable requirements with qualified advisers and the current standard. Preparation support does not itself provide certification.
